The Mirror reports yesterday's announcement from Dec's manager stating that Declan and his other half have agreed to an amicable break-up. No, this doesn't mean the end of Ant and Dec! Dec's other half is beautiful actress Clare Buckfield who he first met way back in his Byker Grove days.
The article also claims that Ant and Dec plan to quit Pop Idol after the current series as they hope to take 'Saturday Night Takeaway' across the Atlantic to the US.
